When Porsche introduced the third iteration of their Cayenne, there was a conspicuous absence of the potent Turbo version that had left enthusiasts intrigued. However, in late August 2023, the automaker finally unveiled the solution to this mystery – the Turbo E-Hybrid. This new iteration not only surpassed the previous Turbo S in terms of power but also managed to improve fuel efficiency and reduce its environmental footprint, a move that applied to both the regular SUV and the SUV Coupe models.
Turning our attention to the front end, the Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid Coupe GT Package shares a striking resemblance with its sibling. It boasts a broad black grille flanked by tall air scoops housing slim LED light strips serving as daytime running lights. Lower on the bumper, there’s a third trapezoidal air intake. When viewed from the side, this large SUV flaunts a coupe-like design with a roofline that slopes gracefully from above the rear seats. Adding to its sporty aesthetics are the black trims around the wheel arches, both front and rear, which accentuate the appearance of the 22″ light alloy wheels. It also sits 10 mm (0.4″) lower to the ground compared to the standard version, contributing to enhanced stability. To improve performance during high-speed cornering, Porsche opted for a lightweight carbon fiber construction for the car’s roof.
Stepping inside the cabin, the Cayenne E-Hybrid Coupe GT Package primarily accommodates four passengers, though there are seatbelts for three in the back. Front passengers are treated to sports seats and a unique infotainment system that extends from the instrument cluster to the side passenger area. The Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid Coupe GT Package even offers high-bolstered seats at the front, with the option of Alcantara and Leather trims for added comfort and luxury.
However, what truly sets this model apart is its impressive powertrain. Porsche has equipped it with a formidable drivetrain, consisting of a twin-turbo V8 engine paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. An electric motor complements this setup, resulting in an astounding combined power output of 730 HP (739 PS). This immense power is distributed to all four wheels of the SUV, which relies on an air suspension specially tuned for optimal performance. Thanks to the two-chamber technology in the suspension, the Cayenne E-Hybrid Coupe GT Package offers a comfortable ride for its occupants. To bring this substantial SUV to a halt, Porsche has incorporated substantial brakes on all four wheels and even offers an option to upgrade to ceramic brakes (Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake – PCCB). These braking enhancements and other performance improvements come standard with the Cayenne E-Hybrid Coupe GT package.
In conclusion, the 2024 Porsche Cayenne Turbo E-Hybrid with the GT Package is a noteworthy addition to the Porsche lineup, delivering an impressive combination of power, style, and innovation.
